Score reports will be issued as follows:

1. To the candidates. Scores can be viewed online. One complete score report will be issued to each candidate, at no charge, following the successful completion of Part III. Scores will not be released over the telephone, fax, or email.

2. To the optometric institutions. One score report will be issued, at no charge, to the candidate's optometric institution if the candidate authorizes release of the scores during registration.

3. To the state boards. Upon verification of graduation and completion of Part III, the National Board will send a free cumulative score report to the state boards you selected during your registration for Part III.

4. Candidates need to call their respective state boards to find out when law scores will be released by state boards. NBEO only administers the state law exams, state boards release the scores. A score of a state law exam administered by the NBEO must be obtained directly from that state board; it will not appear on the NBEO Score Report.
